Next is Carsten Auer talking about designing Tūranga for all. Libraries are essential to people remaining part of the social fabric. Important to have 5 months to work on it. Plenty of time provides time to involve and consult more groups of people.

Happy seven years to our friends at @TheSpinoffTV, @DuncanGreive @simondangerday @MadmanChap - hope you are all celebrating in your bubbles right now. Copper and wool are the traditional gifts associated with a seventh anniversary - feels fitting for a cold night at home.

Here's the latest on tarāpuka and some fascinating info on Ōtautahi and birdlife. Thanks @SasJ64 x.com/SasJ64/status/14299559…

Former urban nesting site of endangered tarāpuka or black-billed gull in Ōtautahi. Now cleared of the ruins of the concrete-frames (unexpected habitat) & of the birds themselves. Anyone seen any details on their relocation? Did DoC work with mana whenua on this?
